Collinsville Power Station

The Collinsville Power Station is located 4km West of Collinsville, Queensland. It is wholly owned by Transfield Services Infrastructure Fund. The power station has an installed capacity of 180 megawatts (MW) from four 30MW generating units and one 60MW unit. The company states that the plant was "completely refurbished in 1998 through a joint venture with Transfield Collinsville Pty Limited and NRGenerating Holdings. It is independently estimated that Collinsville has a potential remaining technical life of 18 years based on the refurbished plant design life of 30 years."

Coal for the power station is sourced from the nearby Collinsvale mine.
